Local Heroes - Local Heroes (company) - Netflix

Local Heroes is a British online on-demand end-to-end service which
connects people with local plumbers, electricians and other
tradespeople. It was launched in early 2016 by multinational utility
company Centrica as an innovation of its subsidiary, British Gas. It
operates across Great Britain and works with a network of independent
local tradespeople to fulfil customer jobs. All tradespeople are
approved by British Gas and must have required qualifications relevant
to their trade.

Local Heroes - Pricing and payments - Netflix

When a user completes the form requesting a tradesperson, Local Heroes
uses market research and historical data to provide an estimated price
range for the requested job. If accepted, the Local Hero will then
provide a final quote directly to the user which they can choose whether
to accept or not. As all jobs are guaranteed by British Gas, the user
must pay directly to Local Heroes and will void the guarantee if cash is
paid. Once a job is complete, the tradesperson creates a bill for the
customer who can then choose to pay via PayPal or credit card.
